Escape Music Festival Announces Full Lineup / Oct 11-12 / Brooklyn

Max — Wed, 03 Sep 2014 15:27:52 +0000

Now with summertime festival season out of the way, we are pumped to announce the full lineup for Brooklyn’s own Escape Music Festival. We’re honored to have been a part of curating the live main stage. The lineup, if we do say so ourselves, speaks for itself and has just been announced featuring Girl Talk, a Moby DJ set, Anoraak, and The Joy Formidable, in addition to previously announced artists Placebo, Yeasayer, Ra Ra Riot, The Crystal Method and more. The venue is completely insane. Right on the water in Red Hook with sweeping views of the Manhattan skyline. It will be a mind blowing place to catch a live show.

It’s been a long road from when we set out to do this thing right. And here we are. I cannot wait for October 11th & 12th. Columbus Day, it’s on!

Tim’s Essential Tracks of 2013

Tim — Tue, 17 Dec 2013 20:03:03 +0000

So that was 2013 huh? Pretty solid year. I’ve been working on this list all year. Full disclosure, if you’re looking for the obvious “Best of 2013″ list, this is not for you. This is more about the tracks that might have slipped through the cracks, the tracks that never quite got the attention they deserved. Some of them are more obvious than others (read: Daft Punk). While others, need to be heard (read: Streets of Laredo).

How do you boil down a year to 15 songs? In my case, you don’t. You make a soundcloud best of and a Spotify Best of list. We had a banner year personally, professionally and musically. A lot of firsts that I am extremely thankful for. Rather than sit here and wax poetic on what was definitely the best year of my life, why don’t you just sit back and listen to these tunes that helped make 2013 so special?

And then I made a totally different Spotify playlist so you got hours of music to listen to.

TMD’s June Mixtape

Tim — Mon, 03 Jun 2013 14:45:31 +0000

Welcome to the June mixtape. One of the more difficult ones I’ve had to put together. Difficult because there was so much good music going on this past month. There were some extremely difficult cuts that had to be made and so much so that there could almost be another installment. In any event, I proudly present you TMD’s June Mixtape. This one’s built for summer time. It’s finally here. I hope you like it.

Mayer Hawthorne – Her Favorite Song

Molly — Fri, 24 May 2013 19:32:13 +0000

It’s Memorial Day weekend kids! Obviously you are all gonna get mad classy this fine Friday evening, and Mayer Hawthorne has set the mood for you with this track off his upcoming album Where Does This Door Go. Plus there are some sexy Jessie Ware vocals all up in that chorus, so basically, where are your Ray Bans? Buy this song on iTunes to get even cooler.

OH. BONUS MATERIAL. Lyric sing-along vid straight from the Hawth himself.
